Bacon Wrapped Onion Rings

I saw these in a restaurant recently and knew that I had to make them. The chef had this knowing glint in his eye while explaining what I was looking at. I was surprised to find many recipes online – but I couldn’t find any that used a battered Paleo onion ring. I worked all weekend to perfect this batter, so please, make traditional onion rings with the rest of the batter. They’re killer.

It’s Daddy’s Day this weekend, don’t forget! My dad, he gets to eat bacon when my sister or I visit. Or if he visits one of us. I was thinking of you when I was eating these, Dad! That’s an outright lie. There’s no way I was thinking about anything other than what was going on in my mouth at that moment! But when I was thinking about Father’s Day, this creation did come to mind. Truth.

I saw this link video recently; Jim Carrey giving a commencement speech full of words of advice and talking a little about things he’d learned from his dad. This isn’t the whole talk, just a one minute edit. You can see the whole thing here (about 1/2 hour worth). I like Jim, not just because he’s Canadian, but because he is really funny, and adaptable. I like some of his serious stuff too. I think it’s his smiling eyes to be honest. Seems like a genuine dude. I loved this line: “You will only ever have 2 choices: love and fear. Choose love. And don’t ever let fear turn you against your playful heart.” Anyway, enough about my man crush, although, do you think he’d like some bacon wrapped onion rings…?
